(1) OYA must deposit all money received for the purpose of caring for a youth in custody in OYA's legal or physical custody, and interest earned thereon, into the youth in custody 's maintenance account. The maintenance account must include subaccounts to separately track money and interest earned by source as follows:

(2) OYA must apply money available in a youth in custody 's maintenance account against costs OYA expended for care of that youth in custody.

(3) Youth in custody placed in an unpaid placement may have monthly needs met from certain money available in their maintenance accounts. OYA must determine prior to forwarding money that a financial need exists. The maximum amount to be forwarded varies by source. For example:

(a) Benefits such as Social Security, Veteran's, and Railroad Retirement must not exceed the month's benefit;

(b) SSI benefits must be returned to the Social Security Administration (SSA);

(c) Voluntary support is limited only by financial need; or

(d) Court-ordered support must not be used for this purpose.
